4x4 driveshafts
4x4 driveshafts
(OP)
Fwd's that have different lengths of shafts from the differential to each of the wheels are designed with different shaft stiffnesses(ID,OD)per length to provide the same overall shaft stiffness.
Question
In 4X4's is the same idea applied to the driveshafts going from the transfer case to the front/rear differentials?

RE: 4x4 driveshafts
There should be no need to have that front-to-rear. I have not seen any 4WD or AWD that is designed to be truly locked together front-to-rear while on pavement. All have some sort of differential, viscous coupling, or the like.
